C4 5K Run to Defeat Colorectal Cancer
The California Colorectal Cancer Coalition (C4) is a nonprofit organization made up of a diverse group of dedicated individuals from throughout California whose mission is to save lives and reduce suffering from colorectal cancer in all Californians.
Funds raised through the “Screen Your Gut - Save Your Butt” run will be used for the C4 Community Grants Program that aims to increase screening to prevent colorectal cancer development and detect existing cancers earlier when the outcomes are more favorable for patients.
Attendee - Race Day Photos - Welcome to add here!
We have someone taking pictures during race day for C4, with permission being asked at the time those pictures are being taken. We are very mindful of how we use pictures of people taken in public spaces. You are welcome to share your photos from the race in the link provided here, but we request that if you take pictures of others to drop here, please only do so after asking for permission to use in any potential outreach we might do in the future.

We want to help you celebrate that you came, helped spread the word about awareness and education related to colorectal cancer.
